Thanks Eric, the manufacturer cautioned me on the amount of solution but I can see where it would be very easy to over wet the swab. I always feel quite smug not giving extra money to Nikon if I am able.

Well done Gary. It can be nerve racking the first time you swab a sensor.

I remember back in the day I did my D1X for the first time. I used so much solvent, the camera went weird for a few moments, flashing up strange figures on the LCD and not responding correctly. I think it was drunk!
Took the lens off, let the solvent evaporate fully and it cleared the intoxication.:wine: Used just a couple of drops next time.
